Alice Kuipers is the award-winning, bestselling author of five young adult novels, including Life on the Refrigerator Door, longlisted for the UK’s Carnegie Medal, and two picture books. A festival favourite, she returns this year with Polly Diamond and the Magic Book, a lighthearted chapter book for ages 6 to 9 that explores the differences between figurative and literal language and will instill in young readers a love of words.
The first in a delightfully funny and magical chapter book series perfect for fans of Ivy + Bean, Amelia Bedelia, and Dory Fantasmagory!
